I found a small Minecraft SMP called Anything SMP and it is open to join with no whitelist
The server plans to reset every so often and the community gets to decide what they want next
It is hosted by a 14 year old and it says any ages can play so it sounds pretty chill and just for fun

GG.MINEWIND.NET New Server IPHydro SMP – Chill Long Term Vanilla
Hydro SMP is a long term vanilla style server that really tries to feel clean and fair. It uses only performance mods and staff tools so the actual gameplay stays vanilla. The staff are very serious about no griefing and no cheating and they use rollback and inspection tools to keep the world safe.
The community is pretty big with thousands of people on the Discord and there are players who have been around for years. The cool thing is that the whole community votes on server decisions so everyone gets a say in how the server is run.
Even though it is vanilla they use a custom resource pack that adds some cosmetic stuff like special hats signs and banners. These do not change the game balance and are just for looks. They also use things like a live map proximity voice chat and some simple VanillaTweak datapacks like dragon dropping an elytra and extra building blocks.
The server is hosted in Europe on strong hardware and they really care about performance and TPS. If you want a grief free survival world that plans to stick around for a long time and where the community matters this server feels like a good fit.GG.MINEWIND.NET New Server IP
